Well….after a LONG time…I finally managed to install my reconditioned high mount winch. I didnt really have to mod the Bullbar at all, just chop the grill up a bit.

I used the 7.8hp motor I got from NZ, and after doing some testing, im very happy with it. Me and Mate measured some amps / voltages at different points in the system, and found some interesting data.

* At near stall the motor draws over 470 amps!
* Im seeing over 2 volts being dropped between the solenoid (Titan)
* Theres is another 1 volt drop between the battery and the solenoid.
* My alternator is doing very well (Producing 76ish amps, from a 80 amp alternator)

The answer is….

a) some bigger cable (currently using 2 gauge)
b) either another Titan solenoid pack to run in parallel, or swap out to a different system.

Heres a pitiful photo or the current setup, that I will try and replace asap.
